Full Interview Transcript THIS IS A RUSH FDCH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.
WOLF BLITZER, CNN ANCHOR: Welcome back. I'm Wolf Blitzer. We're on Capitol Hill with Congressman Anthony Weiner of New York. Congressman, thanks very much for joining us.
REP. ANTHONY WEINER (D), NEW YORK: Thank you, Wolf. It's my pleasure.
BLITZER: Did you send that picture to that college student in Washington state?
WEINER: I did not. She says she never got it and doesn't know me; I don't - certainly don't know her.
This seems like it's a prank to make fun of my name. You know, when your named Weiner, that happens a lot. Got 45,000-some odd Twitter followers, hundreds of people that I follow. This seems like a prank that has gotten an enormous amount of attention.
BLITZER: This is the picture - I'm sure you've seen it by now. Is this you?
WEINER: I can tell you this. We have a firm that we've hired - I've seen it, it's - I've seen it - a firm that we've hired to get to the bottom of it.
I can tell you this, that photos can manipulated. Photos can be of one thing changed to look like something else. We're going to try to get the bottom of what happened. Maybe Jon Stewart last night had it right, unfortunately, but we're going to find out.
Look, this has turned into this kind of international whodunit. What it really is was, I think, a prank. I'm treating it like a prank and trying to get back to the work I'm trying to do. I understand you want to pursue the story, and we're going to try to help you the best we can.

you can't make this stuff up.
Then he put the "best" one on his yFrog account and started sending them to his cutest "followers"
That's probably all there is to it and he's not lying when he tells Woofie that he doesn't really know how many pictures of his genitals are floating around cyberspace. He just can't remember how many he sent.
How much you want to bet more turn up soon though?
Let’s get to the point: Hands down, this is Weiner’s moment to now play it straight and step up and come clean.
and Wolf shouldn’t have belittled him like that. :-)
The Onion, right.
Oh, gosh, does Breitbart have more?
Drip, drip, drip.
